A dark vigilante thriller that traps its split-psyche antihero on the open ocean with killers on every side. Book two of a psychological revenge series where the hunted man carries his own monster with him, and survival means letting it loose.
Trapped between killers and cops, his only way out is to unleash the monster.
Tom Lewis is broken. Gentle. Slow. A man the world overlooks.
But inside him lives something else.
Jimmy Blue. Cold. Brilliant. Merciless.
He avenged his parents. Now he’s taking on London’s crime lords. London’s streets are littered with bodies, and the police are closing in. To escape, Tom boards a freighter bound for New York.
But the freighter offers no sanctuary. Seven passengers are worth fortunes dead. The crew are killers—and the passengers are pawns in a deadly game. And across the ocean, the cops are waiting with handcuffs.
Tom can’t survive what’s coming.
But Jimmy Blue might.
Once Jimmy Blue boards, there’s no hiding. No escape. Only death.
Dark, brutal, and impossible to put down, Run, Hide, Die is book two of award-winning Ian W. Sainsbury’s Jimmy Blue Revenge Thrillers—a vigilante series with a psychological edge. Fans of Jack Reacher and Dexter will find their next obsession in Jimmy Blue.

Born at an early age, Ian W Sainsbury quickly learned to talk about himself in the third person, meaning a career in the arts was all but inevitable. In 1987, he ran away from university to join the circus, playing in a band providing accompaniment for monkeys riding on pigs. Finding it hard to match such early success, Ian played piano on cruise ships before spending over a decade singing in European piano bars. He also ran (and still does) a choir or two, singing pop stuff in a pub. The next career move was obvious, and no one was surprised when Ian spent five years as a stand-up comic. He also began writing music and material for ventriloquist Paul Zerdin, including co-writing Zerdin’s Vegas show in 2016. After music, circuses, puppets, comedy and choirs, Ian pooled his earnings to date and was able to buy a palatial two-man tent and a skateboard. It was at this point that he decided the world might be ready for a novel or two. Since The World Walker appeared on Amazon in 2016, Ian has—to his amazement—found he is one of those people who does what he loves for a living without having to sell a kidney. He lives in East Anglia, UK, with Mrs S, two children, and a flatulent dog.
